Responsive!

This is Chris: Responsive Redesign

Mobile Version!

Do you notice anything different about ThisisChris.com? Well, if I did my job correctly, you probably don’t… unless you are looking at this site on a small screen.

Remember way back in July when I said I was planning a responsive re-design on my website? You don’t? Well, that’s not surprising.

Anyway, I had a big brain burst this past weekend and cranked it out. So the website looks pretty much exactly the same, but there’s a bunch of new CSS under the hood. I should say it looks the same until you look at it on a mobile phone (or a smaller browser window).

Go ahead: gradually shrink this browser window and watch how my website now responds to the size of the window!

There are still a few tweaks to work out; the “You Might Also Like” links are pretty borked. And I haven’t yet found a good way to shrink both the height and the width of iframes. Does anyone know a good trick for responsive iframes that does not involve wrapping them in another

tag? I don’t want to have to go back through ten+ years of this blog and wrap all my iframes.
